A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The best ones are thoughts that many people can relate to and they find something funny or interesting in regular stuff.

Rules

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. Avoid politics (NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out)
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

Now when you submit text to chat GPT, it responds with “this.”

As a language model, I laughed at this way harder than I should have

NTA, that was funny.

And it will get LOSE and LOOSE mixed up like you did

ChatGPT trained used Reddit posts -> ChatGPT goes temporarily “insane”

Coincidence? I don't think so.

[–] public_image_ltd@lemmy.world 11 points 8 months ago (2 children)

This is exactly what I was thinking.

And maybe some more people did what i did. Not deleting my accounts but replacing all my posts with content created by a bullshit-generator. Made texts look normal, but everything was completely senseless.

Back in june-july, I used a screen tapping tool + boost to go through and change every comment i could edit with generic type fill, then waited something like 2 weeks in hopes that all of their servers would update to the new text, and then used the same app to delete each comment and post, and then the account itself. Its about all I could think to do.

It also won't be able to differentiate between a jackdaw and a crow.

On the contrary, it'll becomes excessively perfectionist about it. Can't even say "could have" without someone coming in and saying "THANK YOU FOR NOT SAYING OF"

[–] Daxtron2@startrek.website 14 points 8 months ago

It already was, the only difference is that now reddit is getting paid for it.

[–] Norgur@fedia.io 13 points 8 months ago (3 children)

From now on, when you say something like "I think I can give my hoodie to my girlfriend", it will answer"and my axe""

[–] thantik@lemmy.world 13 points 8 months ago (1 children)

It was already trained on Reddit posts. It's just now they're paying for it.

ChatGPT was already trained on Reddit data. Check this video to see how one reddit username caused bugs on it: https://youtu.be/WO2X3oZEJOA?si=maWhUpJRf0ZSF_1T

Insure and ensure.

It will also reply "Yes." to questions "is it A or B?".

Is it a showerthought if it's actually just incorrect

[–] mannonym@lemmy.world 6 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Sure it might have some effect, but a big part of ChatGPT besides "raw" training data is RLHF, reinforcement learning from human feedback. Realistically, the bigger problem is training on AI-generated content that might have correct spelling, but hardly makes sense.

[–] public_image_ltd@lemmy.world 5 points 8 months ago

Then I did the right thing by replacing my texts with correct spelled nonsense.

[–] AnAustralianPhotographer@lemmy.world 6 points 8 months ago (1 children)

And when it learns something new, the response will be "Holy Hell".
